Cincinnati, OH
December 1, 2015
Paycor, providing companies with intuitive, cloud-based onboarding, HR,
payroll and timekeeping software, today announced details of its fourth
quarter product update. The company’s latest batch of enhanced
capabilities includes innovations to expand its unified platform, drive
performance and streamline crucial tasks for hiring, onboarding and
managing employees.
“Today’s small and mid-sized companies face a number of challenges as
they strive to grow their businesses; yet, administrative HR tasks often
take up a great deal of their time. Paycor seeks to help them streamline
time-consuming HR processes to focus more on the people and strategic
initiatives that make their businesses great,” said Jennifer Langer,
senior vice president of Product Management for Paycor. “Paycor has long
been committed to developing the technology solutions that help
organizations simplify their people management processes through
intuitive, user-friendly tools, and our newest products and upgrades do
just that.”
In each quarterly update, Paycor releases
product enhancements and new capabilities, developed directly from
client feedback. As Paycor continues to streamline the interconnected
tasks associated with HR, payroll and timekeeping, the company
introduces a range of updates to its Perform suite to drive
organizational efficiency. Paycor’s fourth quarter Perform product
release includes:
* Improved Benefits Administration: With general availability of
Paycor’s Perform Benefits, part of Paycor’s Perform suite, clients have
access to powerful plan administration, online enrollment and carrier
connections. The solution enables employees to make benefit elections in
the same platform they complete other self-service tasks, while
administrators can manage employee elections more easily within a single
platform and eliminate duplicate entry and needless paperwork.
* Performance Review Tracking: Perform HR clients can now track and
manage employee performance online through the new Performance Tracking
functionality. This enables a streamlined performance review process and
more effective ways to manage the information gained.
* Workflow Email Notifications: Employers can be given the power to
update their own information through self-service, and administrators
are notified of employee changes by email. This feature can be
configured to give clients the flexibility to choose which changes
require notification.
* New Hire Customization: This feature enables onboarding
administrators to add custom fields to the new hire process and choose
which fields should be required for new employees. As a result, they can
collect the necessary information at the beginning of a new hire’s
employment and deliver a more streamlined onboarding experience.
* Greater Flexibility in New Hire Wizard: Paycor Onboarding and
Perform HR users can now customize the New Hire Wizard to add new
fields, eliminate extra steps and exclude fields and even upload
documents when hiring a new employee.
* ACA Readiness: Paycor delivers the technology that streamlines
the way companies manage their ACA responsibilities. By integrating
seamlessly with Paycor’s other modules, such as HR and payroll, clients
benefit from reduced administrative work, as all relevant information
can be accessed from the same system.
* Additional Features: Other new capabilities introduced in
Paycor’s fourth quarter update include mobile-optimized payroll,
flexible document sharing and personally identifiable information
protection to safeguard client data.
“Paycor’s mission is to make key HR, payroll and timekeeping processes
as simple as possible for today’s busy companies,” said Langer. “Our
latest product upgrades were designed to introduce new efficiencies that
enable managers and administrators to spend less time on administrative
tasks in order to help their employees become productive from their
first day and perform at their best throughout their tenures.”
